To find out the scenario of intestinal parasitic infestation in combatants and their families in the setting of Mid-Western Regional Police Hospital (MWRPH), Nepal.
Cross-sectional study.
All 2005 patients presented with the complaint of abdominal pain, diarrhoea, frequent defecation, blood in stool, or black stool from August 2007 to February 2011 were offered a stool examination. About 10g of fresh stool was collected in a clean, dry bottle. Two slides from each specimen were examined applying light microscope in 10 and 40 uvf at Banke, Nepalgunj hospital laboratory.
Among 2005 patients, 928 (46.28%) were infested with either helminths and/or protozoa. 96% were single infestation. The most common infestation was Ascaris lumbricoides (48.06%) and the second was hook worm (18.97%). Most common protozoal infestations were Entamoeba histolytica (12.92%) and Giardia lamblia (9.49%). Helminthic infestations peaked in cool months and protozoal infestations were rather steady throughout the year.
Very high parasitic infestation in least developed mid- western Nepal may need urgent public health intervention.
了解尼泊尔中西部地区警察医院(MWRPH)环境下战斗人员及其家属肠道寄生虫感染情况。
横断面研究。
对2007年8月至2011年2月期间因腹痛、腹泻、排便频繁、便血或黑便前来就诊的所有2005例患者进行粪便检查。在干净、干燥的瓶子中收集约10克新鲜粪便。在尼泊尔班凯尼泊尔根杰医院实验室,对每个标本制作两张玻片,用光学显微镜在10倍和40倍紫外光下进行检查。
在2005例患者中,928例(46.28%)感染了蠕虫和/或原生动物。96%为单一感染。最常见的感染是蛔虫(48.06%),其次是钩虫(18.97%)。最常见的原生动物感染是溶组织内阿米巴(12.92%)和蓝氏贾第鞭毛虫(9.49%)。蠕虫感染在凉爽月份达到高峰,原生动物感染全年较为稳定。
尼泊尔最不发达的中西部地区寄生虫感染率极高,可能需要紧急的公共卫生干预措施。
